    The city of Bludhaven is no stranger to crime. Ruled by an unseen yet iron grip made of corrupt politics, powerful gangs and ruthless criminals, it often seems like good people simply don’t exist anymore. But there are those who would challenge the powers that be…

    Sides:

    Heroes- Could almost be described as “goody-two shoes”. Friendly entities that play by the rules. Many put helping people above all other priorities.

    Vigilantes- Walk the line between good and evil. Independent crimefighters that are willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done, including sacrificing people.

    Villains- Represent the other side of the equation. People who are driven by their own motives (whatever they may be) to commit crimes. Often have no qualms about hurting people.

    OOC: Yup. Let's begin! :)

    Simon Seville sat in the laundromat and looked out the window at the city sunset. He thought about his Boss for some reason. He thinks about the way his boss yelled at him that day.

    He remembers his bosses words perfectly clearly: "You're a Nobody, Seville! You always have been and always will be! You're nothing but a Pathetic, Weak NOBODY!"

    The words had stayed with Simon ever since then...

    Simon was interrupted by the beeping noise of the dryer. Finally, his clothes were done. He got them out of the dryer, put them in the trash bag he had brought them in, and set out for home. He ran as fast as he possibly could with a huge bag of clothes. If he didn't hurry, he might be late...

    Cyn cackled as she walked through a burning building. The grey veil she wore covered her face, hiding her identity. The long sleeved gray shirt and ankle length gray skirt also hid her identity, making it unable for anyone to see any part of her, only seeing she was female. Her long black hair that reached down to her waist was coiled into a braid and wrapped around her neck to keep out of the way.
    Her black boots stepped on ashes and burned things. She had burned a warehouse down to the ground, and the fire had moved on to other neighbor buildings. She had been sited, but was known to public as "Zaiuku". She liked the name. It meant sin in Japanese. (I have no idea if it does, I'm pretty sure it does)
    She flashed out her gloves, and the metal contraptions on the back made the metal claws grow out, curving over her fingers, and leaving several inches of space so that she could stab people. She had used the claws many times, and every time it left her victims lying on the ground, bleeding.
    Slashing out, she knocked a guard out of the way and cut an artery. She concluded that the man would probably die, unless a ambulance could come in time to save him. Whatever.
    Trotting toward the last building, she hooked her claws into the hinges and yanked out. The hinges were pulled out, making the door sag. Kicking it out of the way, Cyn continued toward her prize.

    Name: Jade
    Alter-Ego: N/A
    Gender: Female
    Age: 22
    Background: Completely and utterly normal but for her intelligence, she was raised by her father, Telemachus Rhade, to be a police officer; two years ago he was killed by a criminal gang, and the police dropped the investigation due to a pay-off by the criminals. This loss of faith in the law system induced her to take the law into her own hands. Using the organization of informants her father had set up in the underworld, she abandoned her real name and took the name "Jade"
    Occupation: bounty hunter- she'll deliever any wanted person to anyone who'll pay... only when she deems the person worthy of punishment
    Normal appearance: Long, jet black hair and onyx eyes, blue jeans, black leather boots and jacket, white tee-shirt, silver scarf (worn in all weather)
    Alter-Ego’s appearance: N/A
    Weapons: Siletto hidden in right boot, piano wire used to tie hair back, poison in silver ring on her left hand, hold-out pistol secreted in her sleeve; no weapons in plain sight
    Abilities: Has informants everywhere; martial artist skilled more in foot techniques than hand
    Power: N/A
    Weakness: Wrath. At first I was going to put N/A, but I believe we can go with "wrath" as a personality flaw.
    Alignment: Vigilante

    OOC: May I ask what time period this is? And what country? Or is it a fictional world entirely?

    OOC: Modern time period, fictional city, named Bludhaven. It's supposed to be in america.

    BTW, i like the idea of putting character flaws as a weakness. I even did it to my character. Good one, jade. :)

    BIC: Simon had just about gotten to his current "Apartment" when he saw the crimson flames in the sky. It didn't take a detective to figure out something was wrong, so Simon ran to the top of the staircase and began to change.

    The first thing he always got on was the Black leather gloves and trenchcoat. Then the mask.

    Simon loved his mask. He had gotten it from the first mob informant he had murdered. When he put it on, it made it look like he had no face. Which was fitting. He had taken his bosses words to heart: he was a nobody, and he had been all his life. And now, the name of Mr. Nobody was feared throughout the criminal underworld and beyond.

    Simon put some clips on his chest, put his pistols into his pockets, and was on his way.

    Cyn met a barrage of guards at the bottom of the staircase. She smirked.
    Unsheathing the claws on both of her hands, she stepped forward, and suddenly flashed by them. A hand reached out and slit all of their throats. They were dead before they hit the ground.
    Stepping away from the dead corpse, Cyn continued up the staircase. She had an inhumane power, able to move faster then sound. She was silent, and fast, unable to be seen with speed, and unable to be heard. She liked the ability; it helped her on murders, spying, and thieving.
    Reaching the top of the steps, she opened the door. There was the president of the company, the company that her father worked in. Her father had been hired for someone else's blunder, and she was here to even the score.
    Strutting up to the desk, she stabbed her left hand claws into the wooden desk and said, "I'm here to negotiate." The company president looked up and smiled.
    "Ahh, Cyn Swordhart, you're here rather late. Not to mention, in strange clothing," he said, knowing the voice and strut. Cyn always walked like that. He smiled again, and would continue smiling, the crazy smile plastered on his face, as he was killed.
    Cyn wiped her claws clean on the compnay president's clean suit. She searched his pockets. Taking the wallet, she put it in her pocket.
    Turning to the window, she kicked it open and climbed outside. Leaping out, she landed on the ground, rather heavily, and ran for it. Tapping into her power, she zipped pass everyone, a gray blur, and entered a dark alley. It was here she donned her clothing; a blue jacket, white button down shirt, and dark blue pants. Boots and elbow high gloves.
    Turning out of the alley, she walked off, an everyday person, carrying a backpack over her right shoulder, and having steel contraptions on the back of her gloves.

    Mr. Nobody had learned alleyway shortcuts well since he had begun his work. After all, there were some people on the streets at night, and they could get weirded out if a guy with no face randomly walks by. Plus, they were quicker.

    Within about five minutes, Mr. Nobody had gotten to a building that would normally have taken him about twenty. Unfortunately, it was currently on fire, and there were corpses everywhere. If he hadn't lived in Bludhaven for so long, he would have been shocked that the police hadn't gotten there yet. Of course, he did, so it was simply business as usual for him. That was about when he heard the groaning.
    "Help me."

    Mr. Nobody looked at the man on the ground. The man was obviously bleeding to death. Whoever had done this had a mean streak. There was nothing Mr. Nobody could do to save him. So, he simply pulled out a pistol and aimed it at the man's head.

    "Resquiat", Mr. Nobody said quietly as he pulled the trigger.

    Cyn walked pass the bodies. She stopped, seeing a large crowd, and pushed through. Accidentally crashing into a reporter, she muttered a quick, "Sorry." Scooting pass him, she knelt down and looked at the bodies. Hornets, again. The person who had been doing these pass attacks certainly did have style.
    Pulling out a small notebook, she put another dash under the names.
    "Mysterious Hornet Summoner: 20000683
    Me: 20000683."

    Cyn snapped the notebook close and glared at Leon.
    "Nothing that you need to stick your nose in," she said tersely. Standing up, she stuffed the notebook back into her bag and stomped off.

    Cyn had to admit, the killer liked hornets. This kept her senses alert. Walking on the street, she couldn't shake off the feeling of growing dread. Frowning, she reached into her pocket and drew out the notebook. Flipping through the pages, she paused on a page.
    "Mr. Nobody:
    Sightings: Unknown."
    This didn't improve her attitude. In a few seconds, she was running down the streets, racing toward her home.

Leon walked out of the office.
